[G Tablet General] bcampbe7:
Add me to the list of folks who bought the Woot gTab for personal/business use. Even at $100 off anywhere else, it is not worth the effort to try to resell.

I was very interetsted in the iPad 2, but didn't want to spend $500 on my first Tablet.

I plan on using this for educational purposes for my 3 and 4 year olds. Wife will also use it as a Speech Therapy aide for her clients.
[G Tablet General] drum747:
So I had ordered one from Tigerdirect for 349 but had not received it yet but it was delivered on the same day as the Woot deal. I called Tiger to see if they would price match it. They said no but I could refuse the shipment. I received it and my wife wanted one so I bought her one on Woot. I had a problem with my SD card port and am returning mine to Tiger for replacement. I have been going back and forth with them for 3 days now and today I found out they have the 299.00 deal. They are crediting me back 50 bucks now. All's well that ends well I guess! My wife and I will both have g tabs shortly.
[G Tablet General] TimSykes:
I ended up picking up 3, one for me, one for my wife, and at that price I picked one up got my 6 year old just to play games on. He is hooked to angry birds.
[G Tablet General] Metal_in_Silk:
Def bought mine for personal use. Don't need it, love my netbook...but wanted it :D I'd been on the fence about buying an iPad but then found out it wasn't expandable, no usb etc. so it was a nobrainer to jump on the g-tab.
[G Tablet General] chrishaw:
I'd been tossing around getting a nookcolor and flashing it, gtablet looks to be a lot more powerful for like $20-30 more than the nook (depending on if I could find the nook online w/ no tax like the woot is)
[G Tablet General] walcs:
Got mine for personal usage too, I had one before but returned it in a week due to personal reasons, but I modded the hell out of it and back then there weren't as many things but it was still fun and the hardware was burning. When I saw the Gtab was on sale for 285 shipped from Woot.com I jumped on the deal, I can't wait for it to arrive and start messing with it again :D
[G Tablet General] Naysses:
Me too, bought for personal use... this will be a second g tablet because wife liked so much that I barely put my hands on it.
[G Tablet General] dfdtitmouse:
Woot & Tiger Direct

As previous members have mentioned, there are alot of units for sale on E-bay (and at Tiger Direct's pricing).

I've heard from non-secured sources that Viewsonic is going to sell a "newer" version of this Tablet within the next couple of months - is this true?

(still like my unit, multiple modifications, cheaper than a sports car and hair plugs for my mid life :p)
[G Tablet General] D Wright:
Saw this today on my local craigslist.

I have 2 View sonic G tablets that I received from my parents after a recent internet sale that I do not need but can't be returned. Text/Call xxxxxxxx or email. If i am unable to answer, please leave an offer. Tablets are new and in good condition, and I can root them for you if you'd like.

Woot deal? Why would parents buy him two? I mean, nothing wrong or nefarious, just commerce. Just saying I think a lot are trying to make a little money on this.
[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
And this is the result of the woot deal LOL

gsmarena.com/motorola_atrix-3709.php

[Sorry i couldn't put links properly because i'm new here and looks like don't have enough post.]

As you can see from the links there is another Motorola Atrix on gsmarena and it's not even released yet. I'm looking at the specifications but they're almost same except some unsignificant differences. I assume Motorola Atrix without 4g is a universal version?

Thanks and sorry if a made a mistake about my language :)
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
Guessing from the 3G network bands the "universal" version has it is going to be on a Canadian network that doesn't have 4G yet or maybe Telstra in Australia???
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
they're the same thing. The "4G" was just added by AT&T for marketing reasons.
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
Yes, you might be right. It looks as if the Atrix on Bell is just listed as an Atrix without the 4G
[Atrix 4G General] neotekz:
bell has the same fake 4G network AT&T does, hspa+. both bell and att atrix are the exact same hardware.
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
But they're named differently
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
because Bell isn't in a marketing race to bring out 4G like in the US; we have T-Mobile to thank for that here.
[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
If you remove the "S" emblem off a Porsche Cayenne S with a heat gun its still a turbo charged Cayenne ;) .
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
i don't see what you're point is. I'm just saying that they are named differently which is why it shows up on GSMArena twice, that's all
[Atrix 4G General] ikenley:
Nah, 4G is just AT&T's label for 3.5G. I have the Atrix 4G and it works for all carriers in Australia, but Telstra supports HSPDA+ so it gets faster speed for the phone.
[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
I was just guessing
[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
Ah gotcha!
[Vega General] dagrim1:
Thought it might be of interest for some so decided to open a new topic...

Based on reports of successfully replacing a screen on the Viewsonic G Tablet I thought I'd try the same with the vega. I ordered this screen for it was reported to work on the viewsonic and maybe work on the vega;

http://www.nbkit.com/Wholesale/prod...n-10.1-inch-LED-1366x768-WXGA-HD__c18093.html

After opening up the vega (pretty easy actually, see: http://android.modaco.com/content/advent-vega-vega-modaco-com/324250/vega-internals/) I tried connecting the LCD by simply removing the LCD interface connector from the original screen and plugging it into the LG. THis without actually removing the old screen, just had the LG on top of the (backside of the) vega.

Powering on did power on the LG screen, the backlight oif the LCD turned on, but unfortunately there was no display. So unless I'm missing a connector it doesn't seem to work...

It booted and the screen went to standby after guessing the lockscreen I guess, pressing the power button got it out of standby again (backlight turned on) but nothing else... Screen stayed black and no display.

Any questions, tips or hints are welcome since I'm a total nitwit ;)

ps. Another issue is the location of the connector. It's way more to the left and upwards oin the LG. If you look at the pic on the site above you see the connector on the left of the white sticker (bottom left, at the right of the red letters). In the original it's on the bottom center or right-ish of that sticker.
[Vega General] dunetails:
This is a real shame,if the Vega had a better screen it would be a killer.
[Vega General] dagrim1:
Gave it another try but again no success, screen lighted up... But other then that nothing. Booted it wih hdmi cable attatched and saw that it booted (used the CM7 rom btw) and started fine but no display on the lcd.

Attached some pics to show the different parts. Any comments are welcome but I simply guess it's a no-go..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuhilicious:
So I came upon this (in the attached file) theme and I thought it was incredibly nice. The question was, I didn't know how to change the color to pink like that. The person who has the theme said she changed the framework (in Go Launcher EX) to get everything to be pink.

Does anyone know how to do this? And does anyone know the name of the clock app?

Thanks!
[Folio 100 General] pereiks:
I'm looking for spare battery for folio. Does anyone know where I can order one?
[LG Optimus 2x] beejizzle:
Is it possible to get the BackLightNotification mod for i9000 to o2x?

Or do we need the kernelsource?
[LG Optimus 2x] Gilg@mesh:
will NoLED work with Optimus 2X or is it only for i9000/Nexus S? would be nice if it worked
[LG Optimus 2x] Hojou:
noled would work but drain the battery as 2X does not have amoled and thus does use full power lighting the screen. there was a post on the forum already.
[LG Optimus 2x] beejizzle:
NoLED works very bad on o2x due to LCD... doesn't look good at all and drains battery
[LG Optimus 2x] Gilg@mesh:
damn then I'm out of options :/ damn those who don't use any form of LED notification...
[LG Optimus 2x] michael2041:
Someone get this working!! Possibly with no flashing..on the future G2X?;)
[LG Optimus 2x] MaliciousKen:
maybe we can use the backlight of the capacitive buttons instead?
[LG Optimus 2x] racermussen:
I second that

I was thinking the same, i rather want a nice little touch button SHOW, I was thinking that some blinking would b nice.

But I read somewhere on the forum, that we need the source code and something else to be able to control the led in the buttons.
[LG Optimus 2x] dazzle999:
think you need a kernel tweak to change the lights on the buttons like the galaxy kernel mod ..
[LG Optimus 2x] Ronaldo_9:
NoLED is for amoled screens and not standard LCD
[LG Optimus 2x] michael2041:
Missed Message Flasher, when set to flashing less than every 250ms, flashes the buttons and not the screen on the LG Optimus S/T/V/One. So, this is a step in the right direction - and it doesn't require root or flashing new kernels.
[LG Optimus 2x] medo18:
BLN Control

Install this from the market .

Name : ( BLN Control )

Let us know if it works.
[LG Optimus 2x] muude:
Doesn't work. Says it needs a different kernel
[LG Optimus 2x] davjan:
i set flashing on 200 and the screens flashes , the buttons not :s
[LG Optimus 2x] racermussen:
Missed Message Flasher

Is good enough for me :D

I have set it to flash the screen a quick on and of and then vibrate once in a while.

:)
[LG Optimus 2x] michael2041:
Try like 50
[LG Optimus 2x] MaliciousKen:
I even tried 25, but screens still turn on.
[LG Optimus 2x] michael2041:
Hmm...what about like 5ms?
[LG Optimus 2x] dnslammers:
Do a search for this on google...

Touch LED Notifications (BETA) 0.3 for LG Optimus 2x

I'm a new user so I can't post new links yet...on you tube you can find an example of it lighting up the capacitive buttons...

That touch led app works great. I just wish it worked with google voice.
[Thunderbolt General] douglasmcusmc:
I spoke to verizon today and they stated 3g unlimited data plans will be grandfathered in with 4g unlimited data plans. I'm taken this with a grain of salt, I'm not sure how much she knew what she was talking about but just give ya heads up.. she told me this when asking about the 4 g unlimited data plan how long it would stay unlimited. but like I said grain of salt.

Hey guys I have been using the Tiamat Kernel and since the last few updates I have had constant reboots.

If you know how to do this I would greatly appreciate your help!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Netanel1:
Hello everyone

I got my DHD last week on tuesday, very happy with it so far!

So I was playing Slice It for about an hour and a half, and my battery went from 100% to 56%.

Battery Use shows this:

1h 36m since unplugged

Display 58%

Slice It 29%

akmd 5%

Android System 4%

Cell Standby 2%

Mediaserver 2%

Wi-Fi was off the whole time, brightness was at about 15-20%, and the volume at about 35%...

Is this normal for the battery to run out so quickly?

P.S. I did charge the battery for 8 hours before any use like the manual said.

Cheers
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Yeah its normal for a less than 2 week old battery. My battery got progressively better every week up until week 5 or so.

Your battery will get better. Plus you were using your phone quite heavily so everything sounds about normal.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wastedtalent:
The battery doesn't last too long on the DHD. I've noted marked improvements by using a combination of JuiceDefender and AdvancedTaskKiller minimising bg apps.

Google has decided not to release the Honeycomb source code for the foreseeable future.

[Adam General] football0552:
I was just coming to post that. This blows.
[Adam General] Magnesus:
Wow, that really pushes me toward looking for a tablet with Ubuntu instead. Looks like Honeycomb is a mess rushed for release much to soon. The more I look into Android the more closed it seems. :(
[Adam General] Amon Darthir:
I think I'm going to go cry now. Does anyone know if NI already has access to Honeycomb or are we completely reamed now?

[Adam General] biggin65409:
The article kept talking about putting Honeycomb on phones. I thought Honeycomb was made for tablets and not phones. I guessed I assumed that it was never intended to be put on a phone. Wikipedia talks about ice-cream sandwich (look up android operating system), which I haven't heard of until just now, being a combination of Honeycomb and Gingerbread. (Look at the references)
[Adam General] craby1925:
Everyone, its still available for the open handset alliance people. This includes notion ink. And notion ink already said they ported eden to honeycomb on their blog. There probably gonna launch the next pre orders with honeycomb. Delete this thread please
[Adam General] football0552:
NI has had trouble getting the source actually. See the latest interview of Rohan at NIH.
[Adam General] craby1925:
Either way, he is trying, and whither the hype of notion ink lately Google can't deny him source code. So give it one month and I bet hell have the source. Patience is a virtue that everyone wants to hate:)
[Adam General] hazydave:
This is actually business as usual... only one company gets to work through development, with one device. So that was the Xoom, and Motorola. On the day the Xoom shipped, other OEMs got source access... I would presume it went to the Open Handset Alliance, but it's quite possible they have a more restricted group for the next phase.

There's a fair chance some things were rushed for the Xoom, and Google wants a chance to fix them. They never once promised anyone open development, only open source. So nothing goes out to source.android.com until it's in its final release form. And that's taken long enough in the past for folks to complain, even without the "heads up" or the presumably longer process, this being a major release, all-new hardware, and a new form factor.

I've been in the computer systems business since the early 80s, and nothing I heard from Google said to me "you don't get the source". Only, it's going to be a wait.

With that said, I would certainly hope that Notion Ink doesn't have to wait for source as long as folks like you and I.
[Adam General] Amon Darthir:
Since no one addressed this yet I will. If you read the post correctly you will see that they have ported the Eden apps to Honeycomb. Not that they ported Honeycomb. Big difference.

Partial Honeycomb source

Hey guys. What does this mean for us? From what it sounds like its a decent piece of Honeycomb source. Maybe enough to work with. Anyone know what we can do with this? Lets see what can be done.

http://groups.google.com/group/android-building/browse_thread/thread/b732d8cd82695ce1?pli=1
[Adam General] clockcycle:
Source is not the issue, the issue is Nvidia driver support, or lack of..

-CC

EDIT: The "lack of" may have changed for the possibility.. Let's Hope.

EDIT2: We can already see that devices based on the same Harmony platform are claiming, at least some advancement (upgrades) in the news.
[Adam General] Amon Darthir:
So what is it that were having to wait for? Do we have no way or modifying current drivers to work?
[Adam General] clockcycle:
How can I put this the way I understand it...

NVIDIA makes some reference graphics card, ASUS works on this reference card tweaking it to their custom specs and release their own version of it.

ASUS tweaks the drivers given to them by NVIDIA that works with their reference card and makes/adds what ever is needed to make it work with their version of this reference card..

Let's say NVIDIA's drivers are made for Windows 98, so that's as far as this reference card will work with and there is only so much ASUS can do with that.

Then Windows ME, XP, Vista and 7 come out... But NVIDIA stops supporting or doesn't release any more drivers. So ASUS has nothing else they can make their card work on these new versions of Windows..

Now you have to think in broader terms, I am over simplifying it and this is not the only factors..

New hardware new advances being made every day, just don't make it cost effective and convincing enough for the consumer to keep buying that older card that was for Windows 98 for their Windows 7 machine, they need something better.

NVIDIA makes something better, other vendors work on that instead. ASUS not wanting to be left behind trying to make that older card work, comes out with newer versions of what NVIDIA is coming out with...

Let's say Xpertcolor was still working on the older card and can't afford to just dump it and work on a newer card because they aren't as big as ASUS has gotten... They are at the mercy of NVIDIA..

Hope that sorta makes some sense..

-CC
[Adam General] Amon Darthir:
I suppose so. Frustrating that there isn't really anything we can do about it.
[Adam General] blazingwolf:
Doesn't mean that Asus can't continue to use the older drivers if Nvidia doesn't come out with something new or if Asus doesn't want to move to another new reference design. It would be up to Asus to continue updates for tech that Nvidia has moved away from. This is usually true for tech that companies have just put out (on the market) even though it is considered old by tech standards.

The question that remains for us is will Notion Ink keep the comments they made about moving to newer OS versions. Only time will tell.
[Adam General] clockcycle:
Moar i.e.; There are new features in Windows 7 which NIVIDIA never made drivers for old card, so you don't have old drivers to use to make that new feature work...

There are advancements made taking advantage of faster, newer graphics, that ASUS can't update or work on unless NVIDIA updates and gives it to them..

So yeah ASUS could in theory keep working the old drivers and make that older card work on Windows 7, but can't take advantage of any of the new features, it's slow, slower than it was on Windows 98. All the games and programs made to take advantage of these new features in Windows 7, the old Windows 98 card just can't handle, so those new games and programs just won't work or if they do, really slow and not worth the hassle.. ASUS says screw that, Xpertcolor sighs...

Get it?

If true it looks like the adam will not be getting Honeycomb. it does not meet the screen resolution requirement. This normally changes after it runs the internet but Honeycomb is being treated differently

In that case craby, become an admin and delete it if it bothers you that much. I've been told since January I'd have an SDK 'soon' and still have none. Just because they say they are working on it doesn't mean its happening tomorrow. We don't even know that they have source yet. One we have honeycomb, you can rant about deleting the thread. Until then, this is where we'll talk about what we see happening.
[Adam General] craby1925:
I would just like people to know, that it has been well known that honeycomb will be released eventually. And sorry but a hacking dev is a little diffderent that a world wide company. I want pwoplw to understand that patience will deliver and notion ink also said no matter how old adam is-they will try to update it.

[Adam General] craby1925:
Quoting you. "Key word there" is released eventually. I didn't say it was released. Some one got the source to the basic graphics, none of the drivers. This source isn't worth much to devs or an app developer like yourself. My point is proven more that were not devs we just work with apps
